“Gott Genügt (God Sufficeth)” by Colin Shoemaker

Baha’i Blog’s “Studio Sessions” is an initiative where we invite Baha’is and their friends from around the world to come into a studio and share the Baha’i Writings put to music.

In this Baha’i Blog Studio Session, we’re in Frankfurt, Germany with Colin Shoemaker who sings “Gott Genügt (God Sufficeth)” in German, from the Writings of the Bab.

This song was filmed and recorded in Frankfurt, Germany, December 2018.

Lyrics & Quote

Sprich: Gott genügt allen Dingen über alle Dinge hinaus, und nichts in den Himmeln, auf Erden oder dazwischen kann genügen außer Gott, deinem Herrn. Wahrlich, Er ist der Wissende, der Erhalter, der Allmächtige.

The Bab

ENGLISH

Say: God sufficeth all things above all things, and nothing in the heavens or in the earth but God sufficeth. Verily, He is in Himself the Knower, the Sustainer, the Omnipotent.
